The call of the partisans is based on a false foundation, which is to form blocs and then educate; it is a weak foundation, and reality proves that it is not beneficial.

The Shaykh : Their call is based on a foundation they express as "form blocs and then educate," but then they do not educate. Reality is the greatest proof. The call of the Muslim Brotherhood has been going on for sixty or seventy years, and there has been no major change. If the younger ones have changed, the older ones have not; they still carry the ideas they learned in primary schools or in the special sectarian study circles. So, this bloc formation has not benefited them at all, because it is not accompanied by education. This is a natural thing, because a person, to the extent that he focuses on one aspect, weakens in another, and human energy is limited. As for us, our call is based on the foundation of "educate and then form blocs." And there is no doubt that this call, as reality shows, truly educates, but it does not form blocs except within very narrow limits. This is the law of Allah in His creation, and you will not find any change in the law of Allah. So, I can say that this essential matter is the great difference between the Salafi call and the call of the other groups. Our call is a methodological, educational call, while their call is based on an Islam that has no concept. There is no need now, and time is short, to mention that story I have mentioned more than once. A leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in some Arab country entered a session exactly like this one. We were sitting, and he started shaking hands. I was sitting in Abu Anas's place on the ground, and everyone was sitting. He shook hands with everyone, and I was observing what they were saying and the expressions on his face. I saw a change in him until the last person came and shook my hand. I said to him, "Mr., they say in our land of Sham, 'A noble person without standing up.'" He heard this phrase, and it was as if it were a dynamite key; he exploded. He said, "We are now in a time when we must not occupy ourselves with such simple or trivial matters." I do not know exactly what he said, but this is the matter. We now need to form a bloc based on fighting communism, Ba'athism, and the atheists, and so on. A very long discussion took place between him and me. In conclusion, I said to him, "Mr., is it not obligatory for us to agree on a common word?" He said, "All Muslims say La ilaha illa Allah." I said, "But you understand that they say it and differ in its interpretation." I reminded him at that time, if he was aware of a message issued by a man in our land of Sham named Muhammad al-Hashimi, the Shaykh of the Shadhiliyyah order. The title of the message was *La ilaha illa Allah*. In the introduction, he gave an interpretation of La ilaha illa Allah: "There is no Lord except Allah." This is the oneness of lordship that we constantly mention does not make the Muslim believe in the truth of La ilaha illa Allah. I reminded him that now many Muslims understand it this way, and it is... So, is this a difference we leave aside? He said, "Yes, we leave it to fight the Ba'athists and the communists, and so on." Well, do you want to fight with whom? These people say La ilaha illa Allah, but they call for aid other than Allah and seek help from other than Allah, and so on. This is where the matter of these groups stands regarding their lack of attention to educating their group, even in the creed of tawhid. So, we say:
"This difference between us is sufficient for you, *** And every vessel is filled with what is in it."
Perhaps the second question is related to the first?
"This difference between us is sufficient for you, *** And every vessel is filled with what is in it."
